VLC Starting Off Screen

Postby mr_crow » 06 Dec 2010 11:08

Hey,

Just recently I have been having problems with VLC starting in random places on the screen (and not center where it normally does)
I am running VLC Version 1.1.5 on Windows 7 x64

The last time I opened VLC it started a video off the screen and I was unable to drag it into view.
I managed to open a new VLC window that opened in the normal place and then I pointed it to what I wanted to play and it was ok.
But why all of a sudden is it opening up in random places?

Thanks.

Prolly a corrupted config file. Removal of %appdata%\vlc helps.

I removed the folder and it rebuilt what it needed when it started it up again
It seem to have fixed the problem.

Thanks
